B&G spring review

[Zrain25]

I wanted to make this thread because a lot of people on here are asking me about my b&g springs I have and when I was looking at springs not many people has pics of b&g and there ride hight

Mine have been on for about a month now so they have settled a little. There great springs no to stiff or soft but I haven't really given a good road test yet. The ride hight is perfect for me not low like the h&rs that pervious owner had on it. I would scrape on my intercooler pipe and the bumper with no lip

I haven't scraped anywhere yet with these springs and I have a shine lip on the car also.

Idk if this will help but my tires sizes are 245/45/17 up front with 20mm spacer and I believe i have 250/40/17 or 255/40/17 in the back no spacers I haven't rubbed at all yet at full lock



Just wanted to help anyone out who was looking at b&g cuz I had a hard time finding info/pics

Do you know if B&Gs or Eibach springs are softer? I've always thought B&Gs were rather stiff, but maybe I'm just a pussy..

that's the problem with opinions

I ordered some B&Gs last thanksgiving, hoping to put them on over thanksgiving break and let them settle on the car since I was garaging it for the winter that weekend. They ended up getting shipped out late and have been sitting in my closet since. But it looks like we have similar set-ups, so hopefully I'll get the perfect amount of drop like you did.
Once i get them on my car, I'll be back with my opinion/review.

Never got around to updating this.
I've had my B&G's on for about 3 months now, and I love them. A lot of people say that you need to let the springs settle, but with these, as soon as you get them on, they're pretty much settled.
I wish I had measured the difference between stock and these, but it was a pretty significant drop. The drop was damn near perfect for my car, wheels, etc. The rear sits perfect, but the front is still a little high. I don't rub, even when the wheels are fully cranked though.
The lowering springs are the same size as the stock springs, but softer. Yet even being softer, its a much smoother ride, as in not bouncy and a lot less body roll.
Anyways, here's some before, during and after pictures.

The pain of no power tools:

Finished product:


Nothing done to the fenders, no spacers, nothing but offset and lowering springs. Also, I'm still using the stock shocks. I figured once i took them off, if they were bad I would just get some Megan coilovers. Turned out to still have some life in them.
